Rural poet Jasim Uddin
Palli Uddin was born in 1903 in Tambulkhana Grameenanabari of Sadar upazila of Faridpur district to a respectable Muslim family. Although educated in colonial education, he took the beauty of the rural nature of Bengal, the simple life of the common man as his preoccupation with poetry. He made the land from which he came, the people cherished by this soil, those who were deprived of the consideration of the so-called gentlemen and exiled from citizenship, like him forever. He lived his art life with them. Jasim Uddin emerged among the large Muslim community spread mainly in the rural areas of Bengal, whose main livelihood is agriculture. Jasim Uddin spent most of his childhood, adolescence and youth in this village, in the fields and ghats, on the sand dunes along the river. Due to his close relationship with the countryside at birth, rural nature has been reflected in his literary poetry. He is the poet of the land and the people. This great poet died on 14 March 1986.
